What days do you add face masks to your skin care routines

Ok, so every morning I'll use a face wash and cleanse my face. I don't wear make up just mascara and do my eyebrows.

Each night I'll face wash, cleans and use retinol. I've got a few nip & fab mask but I've read you should use them twice a week max. So I'm wondering what days should I do them!? 😂

This might sound silly but should I space them out a bit?

What day do you add masks into your skin care routine?

Do you Retinol every night?

I would use them on the no Retinol days but I don't actually use face masks myself though I have a lengthy evening routine!

@doadeer yes I use retinol every night.

Can I ask what your skin care routine is of an evening? If you don't mind me asking 😊

Mornings I do Emma Hardie cleanser, Pixi toner, Estée Lauder serum, Clarins moisturiser.

Evenings I do Chanel oil cleanser, Botanics facial oil, Botanics night cream, often with a wee dab of Chanel gradual tan.

Friday night I have a bath and use a clay mask - I like the L’Oréal ones.

Sunday afternoon I have a bath and use a sheet mask - I like the Boots ones.

(I like baths as a leisure activity, YMMV!)

Of course happy to share:

First cleanse > Beauty Pie Plantastic/ Eve Lom/Rituals cleansing Balm - something thick and balmy

Second cleanse > Kate Somerville Goats Milk Cleanser - something lighter

Acid Exfoliate > pixi tonic or Dr Dennis pads

Eye cream > autocorrect by Sunday Riley

Serum > beauty pie Japanese fusion/ vit c Oskia or NIOD Multi-Molecular Hyaluronic Complex (what a mouthful!)

Oil > Lapis Herbivore or Zelens Or Luna night oil

Moisturiser > Kate Somerville K2

Every other night I miss the acid step and use medik8 Retinol

Phew that sounds like a lot! If I'm not fancying it I miss out the eye cream and oil but I have a toddler so I quite enjoy this part of my day in the evening just doing a mini facial!

In the morning I'm very simple as usually running around with porridge in my hair, I cleanse once with Jordan Samuel, add some vit c serum then a day cream and an Spf. It takes less than 5 mins.
